    Calypso - Quantum - kestrel - HUD Bluetooth Hokey Pokey

    Getting at the least the same functionality with the phone as a Garmin is a must at this point. I understand that the entire system started with using a Garmin and even having a phone was not even really considered. Time has moved on and tech has evolved at this point. Outside of .mil I would...

    Calypso - Quantum - kestrel - HUD Bluetooth Hokey Pokey

    @DocUSMCRetired this is yet another person having issues because AB Q is limited to 1 connection at a time. At this point, it seems like addressing this is more important than adding support for other devices that can only be connected one at a time.

    AB Quantum Major Update 3.3 + Calypso AB Mini

    Sadly, you can only have 1 thing connected to AB Q at once. In my opinion, it's the biggest downside/negative to using the phone for your real time solver. As you have found, you can link the Mini AB and the LRF, but the LRF does NOT act as a bridge to give that wind data back into AB Q. It...

    Magpul - 2025 New Maztech X4-FCS & X4-LRF

    If they would just do a 90* connector it would solve a lot of these issues. But I REALLY don't want to have to buy a $200 cable for something that should have been out of the box in the first place.

    Magpul - 2025 New Maztech X4-FCS & X4-LRF

    Maybe a little bit, but not that much. Seems like only realistic way of doing it would be to get the rings instead of the one piece mount to try and get some more space. Even then, I'm not sure it will be enough space to fully clear the turret.

    Magpul - 2025 New Maztech X4-FCS & X4-LRF

    It mounts just fine. I can plug the cable in without an issue, but it sits right in the way of the elevation turret for me. The diving board needs to be longer or taller or something. Or, ideally, they would have a 90* plug. This is on an Area 419 mount/diving board.

    Magpul - 2025 New Maztech X4-FCS & X4-LRF

    It’s honestly massive. Neither the NF or Area419 diving board are long enough for the remote plug to clear the turret on a NF 7-35.

    Area 419 Tactical One-Piece Scope Mount

    Agreed. I will look at Area 419 for pretty much all mounting options moving forward. And their hellfire brake system is incredible as well. Truly some of the best products on the market currently.

    Suppressed Subsonic 300 Blackout

    115 out of a 9mm is always going to be supersonic unless you get an SD style barrel. Which is actually my current project. I am building up an AR9 with an Angstadt Vanquish integrated suppressed barrel. It's going to be an AR version of an MP5 SD, in that because the barrel is ported inside...

    Suppressed Subsonic 300 Blackout

    I love the SF 300 SPS, I have 2 of them. It makes a subsonic 9" BCM 300 BO laughably quiet. I didn't like how hunched up I had to shoot it with a traditional rail and an IR laser. So I switched to a direct thread YHM Resonator 2 tucked into a 15" rail. I am using a dbal i2 direct mounted to...

    Precision Rifle Gear Tell me Where I’m Wrong: AB Quantum App + Calypso out preforms Kestrel 5700 Elite

    I cannot disagree. My set had a screwed up eyepiece. It wouldn't track in/out. Multiple back and forth with support over a few months. Never got a real answer. I decided to figure it out myself. There are 3 little metal screws that ride in a plastic track. At some point the eye piece got...

    Suppressors 338 Lapua

    I have been looking for a TBAC for months and can't ever find one in stock. I have an AB Raptor 10 in 338 that is the best sounding suppressor I've used on my 300 PRC. One of these days I'll get a 338.

    Suppressors 300 blackout sub/super ar suppressor

    Honestly, the 300 SPS has sounded/performed fantastic on everything I've tried it on. From 300 blk subs/supers, 16" & 20" 5.56, 300 PRC. It's probably my favorite do everything suppressor. I have many others, including others from Surefire. It just works.

    Suppressors Form 4 wait time

    Then your dealer needs to reach out to SS and see what the hold up is. My guess is SS doesn't have any information on you paying for the stamp. If you bought the stamp at the same time as the suppressor, then they haven't linked them for some reason. Are you do an individual or trust...

    Typically that means the Form 3 has been approved for the dealer to dealer transfer and is being shipped to your local dealer. That takes however long it takes sadly.

    AB Quantum 3.4.4 Vector X, Max Ord, Max Ord Range, Trace & Dialed Elevation Tool.

    This is a good update. I like that the VectorX is finally supported. My gripes with the app are overall very minor. I wish that the TerrapinX could be supported but it’s my understanding that limitation is on the Terrapin, not with AB Q. Thank you for the continual updates and your presence...

    Calypso - Quantum - kestrel - HUD Bluetooth Hokey Pokey

    Coming from the IT world, I fully understand it's not a super easy process. But as an end user, having the same capabilities on the phone as exists on the Garmin is highly desirable. Having all of the devices at once is a super nice to have, but having at the very least the...

    Calypso - Quantum - kestrel - HUD Bluetooth Hokey Pokey

    That is exactly how it SHOULD work. I mean you can connect an LRF and a Kestrel to a Garmin device at the same time. There is literally zero reason you shouldn’t be able to do the same thing on a phone. As I said, I love AB Q, but there are a number of very simple things that you can’t do...

    Sturm Ruger has bought Anderson Manufacturing

    Wonder if they will keep the roll mark or pull it all under Ruger? Anderson doesn't have a good, or even decent, reputation. Would make sense to discard the name entirely.
